40. I WAS SO EXCITED TO GET TO OUR GOOD DOCTOR HERE. THIS IS DR. PATRICK HYATT FROM MURPHY. WHO SHOULD GET SCREENED? 4 YEARS BEFORE THE FAMILY MEMBER WAS SUSPECTED. IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY HISTORY AT AGE 40 THAT COULD BE GREAT GRANDMOTHER, GREAT GRANDMOTHER GREAT GRANDFATHER? BY AND LARGE YES. WHAT EFFECT RISK IS FIRST DEGREE RELATIVES OR IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN ONE SECOND DEGREE RELATIVE. IF YOU HAVE GRANDPARENTS OR PATERNAL AUNTS OR UNCLE THAT WOULD BE THE SAME AS HAVING A FIRST DEGREE RELATIVE. GETTING READY FOR COLONOSCOPY. THAT'S THE WORST PART. PEOPLE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS TEST IS VERY EASY, YOU ARE ASLEEP, IT'S PAINLESS. PEOPLE DON'T REALLY CARE FOR IT. IT IS A LIQUID DIET THE DAY BEFORE THE TEST. YOU CAN HAVE JELLO, CHICKEN BROTH AM JUICE THINGS LIKE THAT. THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES TO THAT. YOU SHOULD TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT IT. WHAT ARE THE ALTERNATIVES? FOR EXAMPLE THEY DON'T TASTE BAD IT IS JUST WATER AND PILLS. SOME AS SMALL AS 5,000. THERE ARE EASE YEAR WAYS TO DEAL WITH THIS. THE YOU ARE SEDATED FOR THIS PROCEDURE. IT IS NOT CONSIDERED SURGERY BUT YOU ARE ASLEEP FOR IT YOU DON'T WANT TO DRIVE THAT DAY. THE BEST TOOL YOU CAN HAVE. THE VIRTUAL COLONOSCOPY CAN MISS IT THAT IS A USEFUL FOR DIFFICULT COLON. BUT BY AND LARGE COLONOSCOPY IS A PREFERRED METHOD. IF YOU HAVE CANCER NEXT STEP? NEXT STEP HOPEFULLY WOULD BE SURGERY. THE MAJORITY ARE DETECTED AT A COLO COLONOSCOPY ARE EARLY STAGES. THEY DON'T REQUIRE CHEMO OR RADIATION. THAT'S GOOD NEWS. WHEN THE SYMPTOMS PRESENT IS IT THEN OF COURSE YOUR CHANCES OF SURVIVAL DECREASE? POSSIBLY BUT NOT NECESSARILY. IF YOU ARE HAVING SYMPTOMS CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE COLOGNEOSCOPY.
